Litter Act 2004

A person given an abatement notice in relation to an amenity impact may apply for revocation of the notice.

An application must—

be in writing; and

be addressed to the authorised person who gave the notice; and

state the action taken to comply with the notice by the person given the notice and any further measures taken to prevent the amenity impact from happening again; and

nominate a date on or after which an inspection may be made.

The authorised person must, on application or on the authorised person’s initiative, revoke the abatement notice if satisfied, after carrying out an inspection—

that the notice has been complied with; and

that adequate measures have been taken to prevent the amenity impact from happening again.

The revocation must be in writing given to the person given the abatement notice.

If an authorised person refuses an application for revocation, the authorised person must give written notice to the applicant of the refusal stating the reasons for the refusal.

If the notice is given to a person who may apply to the ACAT for review of the decision to which it relates, the notice must be a reviewable decision notice (see s 24X).
